Chapter 2091: Duel with Tuoba Gui
Chapter 2091 Confrontation with Tuoba Gui
Chapter 2089: Confrontation with Tuoba Gui
Oda Nobunaga's arrival, even if it was just to contain the Qin army instead of directly fighting the Qin army, it also had a great impact on the Youzhou battle situation, and the most direct impact was that Zhou Yu's navy could no longer blockade the western Liaoning sea area.
Since the Japanese mission visited Han, the collection of intelligence about Japan has also become a link in the Heibingtai intelligence network.
Qin Hao sent spies to Japan, and Oda Nobunaga did not hide his personal expedition, so naturally he could not hide it from the Qin army's spies.
Zhou Yu, who was still in western Liaoning, after receiving the warning from Heibingtai, decisively gave up all the results of the battle and led the army to withdraw from the western Liaoning continent. After all, if he did not leave, once his retreat was blocked by the Japanese navy, there would be no way to withdraw. So easy.
Zhou Yu's decisiveness definitely exceeded Yinzhen's expectations. After all, Zhou Yu had already achieved great achievements in western Liaoning. He also thought that if Zhou Yu had not left after Oda Nobunaga arrived in western Liaoning, Oda Nobunaga would be under such a fighter opportunity. Will he be tempted to leave Zhou Yu and his navy in western Liaoning? But Zhou Yu left so decisively, which also dispelled the last bit of expectation in Yinzhen's heart.
Shortly after Zhou Yu withdrew from western Liaoning, Oda Nobunaga arrived in western Liaoning, but he did not show any intention to pursue Zhou Yu. Even if Zhou Yu deliberately showed weakness, the only thing he did was to help the Qing army contain the Qin army's navy and break the Qin army's control of the western Liaoning sea area. of blockade.
Zhou Yu was a little disappointed with this. He actually hoped that Oda Nobunaga would pursue him. Only in this way would he have a chance to find a fighter plane and defeat the 30,000 Japanese naval forces in one fell swoop.
Oda Nobunaga's level of caution exceeded Zhou Yu's expectations, as if he had never thought about winning the battle from the beginning. Seeing his behavior, Zhou Yu, who was not sure of victory, did not dare to start a war easily.
The two sides faced off against each other in the waters of western Liaoning and continued to test the waters, but there was no formal war.
Due to the constraints of the Japanese navy, the Qin navy could not continue to blockade the waters of western Liaoning. Yinzhen took this opportunity to forcibly recruit all civilian and merchant ships, filled these ships with grain, and transported them to Youbeiping.
Zhou Yu did not deal with the Qing army's grain transport ships and allowed them to transport grain and grass to Youbeiping. There are three reasons:
First, the sailing route of the Qing army’s grain transport ships was not known;
Second, the main focus is on dealing with the Japanese navy;
Third, it is not necessary. Even if this batch of grain and grass reaches Youbeiping successfully and alleviates the Qing army's shortage of grain and grass, it still cannot change the fate of the Qing army, because the Qin army has already broken through the Yanshan defense line.
Nurhaci set up a total of fifty-five strongholds on the Yanshan defense line. After twenty of them were breached by the Qin army's fierce offensive, he voluntarily abandoned twenty-five and concentrated on defending the last ten camps.
Nurhaci put a lot of thought into the defense of the last ten camps. He wanted people to give people, food to food, and materials to materials. The only requirement was to keep the Qin army out of Yanshan.
As for the candidate for the general of the Yanshan defense line, Nurhaci hesitated for a long time and finally chose the Xianbei general, Tuoba Gui, the head of the Tuoba family. After all, apart from him, there was no one else who could take Agu's place.
After Xianbei was divided between the Yuan, Meng and Manchus, the once powerful Murong family surrendered to the Yuanmeng, while the Tuoba family surrendered to the Manchus.
Unlike the Murong family who were trembling with fear after being demoted to the Yuan Dynasty, the Tuoba family was accepted and reused by the Manchus.
In order to appease the Xianbei surrendered generals and the old people, Nurhaci even did not hesitate to make Tuoba Gui the king of Wei. This was one of the few things Nurhaci did that was more generous than Temujin.
As Prince Tuobagui, his status in the Manchu Qing Dynasty is naturally not low, and after Aguda left, he was one of the few people who could replace Aguda. Nurhaci still has great trust in Tuoba Gui's ability.
In the battle to annex Xianbei, Tuoba Gui caused a lot of trouble to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Nurhachi was able to defeat him only by joining forces with Aguda.
With such a famous general stationed at the Yanshan defense line, Nurhaci felt much more at ease.
Tuoba Gui was the founding emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty. When he was only fifteen years old, he dared to take advantage of the chaos to reestablish the Dai Kingdom, which was located in Niuchuan. He was later renamed King of Wei. He worked hard internally and implemented a series of reforms to promote the Xianbei regime into feudal society; externally Defeated the Helan Tribe, Tiefu, Gaoche, Rouran and other grassland tribes, and competed with Later Yan and Later Qin for hegemony in the Central Plains. He participated in the Battle of Hepi and defeated Murong Bao. He defeated Yao Xing in the Battle of Chaibi, setting the foundation for later Tuoba. Tao laid a solid foundation for unifying the north and was one of the rare wise kings who was ready to fight but not to govern the country.
Tuoba Gui's commander attribute is 97, just like Zhang Han. Zhang Han was able to establish a stronghold in three days and defend the Jieshi Road for half a month under Fu Jian's fierce attack. Tuoba Gui, who also has a commander attribute of 97, has a performance of 97. Not inferior to Zhang Han.
Faced with the 320,000 Qin troops from three routes, a fierce offensive like a tide, Tuoba Gui wisely chose the procrastination tactic to delay the Qin army's attack as much as possible.
Tuoba Gui set a large number of traps during the Qin army's advance, delaying the Qin army's advance and at the same time killing the Qin army's effective forces.
But what Tuobagui didn't expect was that Qing Emperor Nurhaci was ruthless, and Qin King Qin Hao was no less ruthless than him.
Realizing that Tuoba Gui was trying to delay time, Qin Hao ordered the reorganized army to go ahead and issued a clear marching mission, which must reach the destination within the specified time.
Although the Qin army finally arrived within the stipulated time, they were in a hurry and had no time to crack the traps on the way. Nearly two thousand soldiers of the integrated army died tragically in various ways during the march.
The Qin army marched with human shields, which prevented Tuoba Gui from delaying too much time. However, he wiped out more than two thousand Qin troops without wasting a single soldier. This was a feat that even Aguda had never achieved.
The subsequent offensive and defensive battles were as brutal as ever.
The ten battalions of Yanshan were all fortified in a dangerous position. Coupled with the narrow mountain road, it was difficult for the Qin army to take advantage of its military strength. The difficulty of conquering it was no less than that of Fu Jian's attack on the Jieshi Road.
Zhang Han has only one Jieshi camp, but there are ten Yanshan camps. If it takes half a month to attack each camp, even if the Qin army is divided into three groups, Lulongsai will definitely have fallen by the time the Yanshan defense line is broken. So a strong attack is obviously not advisable.
In this regard, Qin Hao also made adjustments. Previously, the three-way general attack tried to eradicate all ten villages, but now it only requires opening up the road to the eastern plain of Youbeiping.
The Yanshan mountain road is winding and winding, with ten large camps located in it. If you want to open the road, no matter which road you take, you must break through at least four large camps.
Once the four battalions are broken and the road is clear, the Qin army can directly enter the plain, and the remaining six battalions can then be left to fend for themselves.
The first large camp among the four camps was led by Wei Qing's troops. It took five full days of fierce attack to break through. The defender Tuoba Xie fought with Xue Dingshan for 20 rounds and was killed by Xue Dingshan.
